I'm getting way too confused on this as I find all three when I look them up. I have a transcription work book that says "Homans." Can someone please post which is correct or the most correct?
Thank you so very much!

...First, it's named after Dr. Homans (as the previous poster mentioned). Secondly, it is no longer proper in medical transcription to use the possessive forms of eponyms. That's why it is now "Alzheimer disease," "Kawasaki disease," "non-Hodgkin lymphoma," etc. The resources where you are finding it with an apostrophe are out of date. If I recall correctly, this new standard is only a few years old. (Why can't they just quit changing this stuff on us?!?!?!)

Biography:
John Homans worked on experimental hypophysectomy with Harvey Williams Cushing (1869-1939) at Johns Hopkins. Homans, Cushing and Samuel James Crowe (1883-1955) in 1910 presented the first evidence of the relationship between the pituitary and the reproductive system. Homans later became interested in peripheral vascular disease.
His wife was Helen Perkins Homans. Their daughter Helen Homans died of pneumonia on November 22, 1916, while serving as a nurse with the Red Cross in France. Homans' three sons all graduated from Harvard.

Was this for delivery of a baby?
Subject: Was this for delivery of a baby?
I found several references on googling to torticollis and hemorrhage, either SCM or intracranial, etc., from traumatic/difficult deliveries. I also found a reference to a type of shaken-baby syndrome where they had been playing and tossing the baby in the air. Too late, I'm sure, but just thought I'd throw this in for the heck of it. It's another exciting night here...so studying the word board :-)
